Lost in Translation, You’re Speaking Her Language

Weekend was excellent. Met a stunner at that party in the hills, and you really hit it off. Only one problem…
You can’t understand a word she / he’s saying.
Not to worry, since now there’s Me-Globe, a new online service that helps you talk with whoever you want, even if you don’t speak the same language.
The notion is simple—while the rest of the internet world is busy sending out updates to hundreds of online “friends” about traffic and how they feel about today being Tuesday (hint: not thrilled), you’ll stick to your instant-messaging window, where you can start getting to know that statuesque Russian super-model from the party, or the shy Thailand actress from the coffeehouse, or the natural Brazilian beauty from the beach. Because if you’re signed in to the LA-based Me-Globe, your instant messages will be translated automatically, in real time, and so will his/hers.
Me-Globe is just out of beta, so as they continue to refine their translation tools, it’s a safe assumption you might find yourself in the midst of a hilarious misunderstanding or two.
But words like “bottle” and “wine” should be clear enough.

Interesting. There should be universal language which is easy to be understood.

Language can be a problem, over time you and a friend, or love may be able to communicate. If you two get past the language and learn to speak each others language, marriage may complicate matters, when visiting each others family.
